Highlights

While most people head to Lake Como and Lake Maggiore, Lake Orta casts a magical spell over those who visit. Aside from its enchanting views and fascinating history, this little gem of a lake is home to one of the charmingest lakeside towns you'll find anywhere as well as the iconic five-star luxury hotel Villa Crespi with its unique Moorish architecture and Arabian Nights atmosphere. 

Close your eyes and imagine waking up in a four-poster canopy bed surrounded by lavish fabrics or starting your day with a divine breakfast on the terrace while enjoying the enchanting views of the lake or ending it with an evening nightcap after a gourmet extravaganza in one of Italy's most celebrated restaurants. This may sound like a dream. A dream come true. Villa Crespi invites you to sleep in the lap of luxury, melt all your worries away in the Wellness Suite and experience a culinary fusion of Italian flavors spanning from north to south. Indulge yourself in three nights of royalty.
